I was pretty much looking to buy a bottle of Smirnoff but then I noticed this 1L bottle for $11.99 right next to Smirnoff, which was $2.00 more, so I bought this one. I figured that Sobieski was pretty much competing for the same customers as Smirnoff, so the quality would be similar. The vodka was pretty smooth and its worth the price.

They tasted okay, but I'd rather get the Kirkland ones in dark red box from Costco. These ones came from the Russian store and this reflects on the taste [cookies from Russian and Turkish stores are inferior than the brand name alternatives from the better stores].

Someone on the net said that Powerade makes Mountain Dew tastes closer to Baja Blast than Gatorade, plus it was $0.50 less than Gatorade. The outcome kinda tasted like Baja Blast, but flat and with generic undertone to it. I'd rather drink the real stuff than the home-made brew.

The best-tasting "rita" compared to Strawberita and Lime-a-rita. Too bad it was limited edition for the holidays and now its nowhere to be found in stores. I could have stocked-up on it since the flavor is very balanced and alcohol is pretty smooth in this one.
